The Reagans As Parents

March 25, 1986

President and Mrs. Reagan admitted they have been hurt, angry and annoyed at apparent descriptions of their parenting in their daughter Patti Davis`s autobiographical novel Home Front. They acknowledged their feelings in an interview with Barbara Walters broadcast Monday night. ``I thought I was a good father,`` Reagan said. ``And maybe there were times when I should have been sterner than I was,`` the president said. Mrs. Reagan added: ``I tried to be a good mother. I don`t think anybody`s perfect, but then, you know, there`s no perfect parent, there`s no perfect child.`` As for their son Ron dancing on Saturday Night Live in his underpants, Mrs. Reagan said she thought he showed ``a presence and a warmth and a humor and a timing in something he had never done before.``

KENNEDY WEDDING BELLS STALLONES SWEEP `RAZZIES`

In a spoof in advance of Monday night`s Academy Awards, Sylvester Stallone, his wife and his brother swept the 6th annual Golden Raspberry Awards for the worst in movies. Stallone`s Rambo: First Blood, Part II was voted 1985`s worst film by the 170-member Golden Raspberry Award Foundation. He took the Razzies for worst actor, director and screenplay; his actress-wife Brigitte Nielsen won for worst supporting actress and new star; and brother Frank Stallone`s tune Peace in Our Life was picked worst song. Nielsen won the worst supporting actress trophy for Stallone`s Rocky IV, and her worst new star win was based on her performances in Rocky IV and Red Sonja. Stallone won the worst actor category for both Rambo and Rocky IV, the first time someone has taken the worst actor award for two titles. The Stallone family replaces John and Bo Derek as the favorite target of the association, which awards yellow, plastic raspberry trophies in ceremonies timed 24 hours ahead of the Academy Awards.
